Ferrari Museum - any info?

Anyone been to the Ferrari Museum? I found their website: http://www.galleria.ferrari.com/GalleriaFerrari/index.jsp
We will be driving right through there from Pisa to Venice and are hoping to stop. We won't have too much time. I am wondering if anyone on this board has been there and can tell me how long it might take to go through the museum without rushing. Thanks for any info.

I'm sure you could do it in a couple of hours. I was thinking of going there too. It is expensive--13 euro.

Last October we were traveling from the Piedmont to Tuscany and spent the night in Maranello just to see the museum. We spent probably two hours there without rushing. Loved all the pretty red cars and the couple we saw that weren't red. My husband was also pretty excited about all the Ferraris we saw driving around the town. If you decide to change your plans and spend the night, we stayed at Hotel Planet and our room was very modern and comfortable, and as best I remember, fairly reasonable in price.

We were there in the fall of 2007. I am not particularly a car buff but these are not just cars - they are art! It was a great experience and only took about 1.5 - 2 hours. Loved it.

We stayed about 8km away in the town of Castelvetro at Locanda del Feudo - a wonderful hotel with fantastic food. I can still remember that risotto! Have fun.
